Consulting is used to assess an organization’s current state, envision a more desired state, and define the strategic gap in between…as it relates to people performance. It is often combined with Learning and Coaching to create comprehensive, sustainable solutions. How can BluOpal ® Consulting help your organization? Consulting is helpful when objective conversation is difficult because of the strong opinions and self interests of the participants. It is often helpful for leaders to seek expert facilitation and an outside viewpoint before charting a course. Clarity is needed when the starting place for any initiative is ambiguous. BluOpal consultants can help you in: Leadership meetings - Guiding owners or leaders in difficult conversations that bring different viewpoints to the surface so common interest or consensus can be achieved. Facilitation is very helpful with stakeholders or leaders who lack the skills to deal with conflict. Cultural alignment surveys - Assessing the readiness of your people to be aligned, skilled, resourced, and engaged in a direction that builds your business. Training and development assessments - Evaluating the structure, effectiveness, and return of your training function…to determine to what extent your training efforts provide value and are cost effective. Direction is the creation of a vision, strategic objective, and plan of action. It involves acquiring resources, developing skill, communicating to others, assigning responsibility, holding people accountable, and measuring results. BluOpal consultants can guide you in: Strategic planning - Facilitating leaders by clarifying vision, mission, values, evaluating the business environment, setting a strategic direction, and articulating specific goals and action steps. Learning architecture - Designing a training and development function focused on the principle of centralized development and localized delivery. Leadership development - Creating the curriculum for developing strong leaders that is aligned with your succession planning, talent identification, and performance management processes.
